    Default Toronto FC - 2011 Roster

    The general consensus among supporters on this forum is that TFC needs to undergo a moderate to drastic rebuild in the off season.

    Assuming that expiring contracts could be extended, which players would you like to see return next season?

    My two cents...

    GK: Frei, Conway, Kocic

    D: Attakora, Cann, Gargan, Harden, Usanov, Gomez

    M: DeRo, JDG, Nane, Sanyang

    F: Barrett, Santos

    also, If I was on the fence, I didn't vote. We're going to have to lose some of the middle-of-the-road guys, and as much as I like some of them, there are better players out there.

    R. Hscanovics has 0 votes so far...

    no surprise.

    the guy can't even receive a pass without it going out of bounds when under zero pressure...

    Just wanted to say that I really like this poll. Will give some good insight (stats) on how suppoter's feel about individual players.

    I think it should be clearer. This poll has to mean "at their current salary". For example, I'd take Garcia back at 40k a year, same goes for Raivis. Also, who do we have to replace them? That's the bigger question.

    I say trade everyone away for draft picks and start this shit over again... if Mo is still around, he's shown that he's not that retarded when it comes to swinging a deal in MLS.... when the draft picks are stocked, then fire MO and get someone else in here who can has an eye for talent.

    In a game where we apparently had no legs, and the schedule had killed us? who was taken off at half time? how much had he played in the last few weeks? that tells you all you need to know about hscanovics's chances of being invited back (no idea what his contract status is, hopefully he's not signed on a multi year deal).

    I voted for 15 of them, probably half of that 15 I'm not particularly attached to but they're decent enough role players that you need to fill out the squad. I'd also vote for Doneil Henry if i could.

    Love this. You know you're in deep trouble when one of the GM's character traits is "not that retarded".

    I'd take Chad, Santos and Mista, but OBW and Ibrahim are barely journeyman status. I like Mista because, from what little I've seen, he seems to have far more "game smarts" than OBW and Ibby put together. If you're going to rebuild (a term I don't like as it assumes that something was built in the first place), then I'd like to keep the smarter ones.

    I think that this off-season will be very interesting. Mo will go, and I suspect that a new GM will want his own coach, who in turn will want his own players.
    O, Maple Leaf around the world, You speak as you rise high above,
    Of courage, peace and quiet strength, Of the Canada that I love.
    Remind us all, our union bound by ties we cannot sever,
    Bright flag revered on every ground, The Maple Leaf forever

    DeGuzman and DeRo need to stay.

    So does Preki.

    Agreed, but I'd use a DP slot on DeRo. I think he plays better when he doesn't hink he's gettign the shaft (e.g. last year at houston at this year.)

    at which point i'd be shaving his salary off of the total cap.

    Keepers:
    Frei
    Conway

    Defenders:
    Attakora
    Cann
    Gargan
    Gomez

    Midfielders:
    DeRo
    JDG
    Labrocca
    Nane
    Sanyang
    Gala

    Forwards:
    Barrett
    Santos
    OBW
    Ibrahim

    Garcia I was divided, I want to keep him but his quality is really slipping and it's only going to get worse for him. The six youngsters (Gomez, Nane, Sanyang, Gala, OBW, Faud) I would keep for the sake of development. If we get a diamond out of these guys, it'll be worth it.

    Keep JDG, get rid of Mista, make DeRo the DP (first time I've felt this since DeRo's signing). Get a third DP, NYRB style (preferably a creative striker with speed, or an Iniesta type that can play mid and winger equally well).

    We need a fullback, a winger and an elite striker. Our holes are fillable, the squad is not a lost cause (don't forget, *competitative* in the MLS isn't really a challenging goal to accomplish for most other teams).

    I'd keep Preki as well.

    ibby is one player i can argue till my dying breath.
    some people have it, some people don't. fuad ibrahim DOES NOT have it. he never will. when you saw chad barrett out there in previous seasons, you were waiting for something to click, it was only a matter of time. ibby doesn't have the finishing IQ, he's not menacing, and he doesn't work. there's no development to be found in that man.

    Lots of interesting roster decisions.

    - Could a new system get more out of De Guzman... ie. not playing a sweeper role as he did to close out the game on Saturday when we needed offense?

    - If not, could DeGuzman be sold to another team in another league? Is there any market for his services?

    - If JDG is kept, does making DeRosario the 3rd DP give the Captain a confidence boosting shot in the arm reduce any discontent?

    - Is keeping DeRosario (1 year older) still a good thing? Is his trade value at its highest it will ever be going forward? Do you move him for assets or hope he retires in Red?

    - If you rid yourself of 1 or 2 Canadian roster spots in DeRosario and JDG, who do they get replaced with?

    Pookie,

    - An open, flowing system would, but I feel like in MLS he's being pushed around more then he's used to.


    -Vancouver and Montreal would take him probably.

    -If he was promised it, I'd give it to him when Mo goes.

    -Hope he retires a red.

    -Rob Friend and David Edgar

    it's obvious (look at the %) that the majority of us want frei around next season. i'm actually interested in seeing the rationale for some of the people who didn't want to keep him.
